My name is Steve and I specialize in interior stair case and railing renovations. I remove entire stair cases and railings, just railings, or just the spindles, and replace with brand new. I have been doping this for over 20 years and have plenty of references available. I am insured and I give free estimates. I work in the entire N.E. Illinois-area, except for the city. I don't usually work in Chicago. But it depends on how far in you are. We can discuss it. Please give me a call and lets see if I can help you with your project. Steve

At CJ Construction, we do it all, big or small! My goal is to offer quality, matched with integrity, so you have the ultimate customer service experience. I have been working in the construction industry for over 15 years, mostly in residential. I specialize in remodels and exterior services. I have worked for a custom cabinetry company doing their installations, and kitchen remodels for the last 12 years. Contact me, Jeff, today for your free estimate!

"CJ Construction reconstructed a bridge that I need to go over a creek so I can get my riding mower to the back of my property. He was friendly, efficient, professional and did this unusual project at a good price. He was very thorough and made the bridge stronger and better than it ever was. I would hire him again for any project he was willing to do. No mess and considerate of property. I would hire Jeff again without even looking for another company."
